Today, a great amount of debate exists over whether Aradia was an authentic representation of Italian Witchcraft at the time Leland published the manuscript. Some go so far as to argue that Maddelena never really existed. While it is true that Maddelena’s involvement with Leland cannot be proven, the fact remains that even with its uncertain origin; Aradia is one of the most important manuscripts available to the Pagan community. Even if it does not reflect the ideology of a hidden tradition of Italian Witchcraft, it most definitely presents such a powerful message that, even today its words are repeatedly found throughout Pagan literature. In fact, it is the foundation for one of the most powerful and well known documents in modern pagan lore, “The Charges of the Goddess ". Paperback. 160 pgs.
